A dental sealant is a protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces of molars to help prevent tooth decay. By using the sealant on the grooves and fissures of the teeth, where bacteria can thrive and cause decay, we can prolong the health and vitality of teeth. In addition, sealants are quite beneficial for children's teeth. Little Fish Dental uses safe, BPA-free sealants that are proven performers when it comes to reducing the risk of cavities in children.

A crown is a dental restoration that covers the entire surface of a damaged or decayed tooth, while a filling is a restoration that fills a cavity in a tooth. Crowns are typically used for more extensive damage, while fillings are used for smaller areas of decay. Crowns and fillings can help restore teeth to natural function and prevent further injury or decay. They are a fantastic solution for parents looking to repair your child's damaged tooth with a natural-looking repair that maintains full functionality.
